Black music like blues, soul, funk, jazz, ska, reggae and many others were hugely influential in the direction popular music took.

Just out of interest name 20 South African bands that have had worldwide success.

I can't name any. but i love the use of the term "white people" being used here as if some kind of racist anti-black agenda is being used by Rolling Stone. because the domination of the list is by the UK and the USA, not simply "white people" which is quite a broad and ambiguous term. and does influential mean the greatest?
